l HERBERT H. RO'SENTEIAL, 0F PITTSBURGH, EENNSYLVJLNIdA LINING FOR HEAD CO'VEBNGS.

Application sled November a, 1922.

To all Iwhom t may concern:

Be it known that l, Hnnsnn'r ROSEN- THAL, a citizen of the United States. and a resident oi Pittsburgh, -/frllegheny County, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful improvement in Linings for Head Coverings, of which the following is a specification sucient to enable those skilled in the art to which the invention appertains to utilize the same.

My improvement relates to the linings of head-coverings, generally such as hats, caps, bonnets, and other forms of head-gear; and my object is to aord simple, convenient, and practicable means whereby the finished articles, to which my improved linings are applied, may be tagged by the Wholesale or retail dealer without danger of injury or impairment of the lining when the tag is detached by the purchaser, or otherwise. Heretofore, it has been customary for the wholesale or retail dealer to sew or otherwise attach the purchase tag directly to the lining, so that the detachment thereof after sale was dicult, if not detrimental or iniurious to the lining, resulting frequently in the tearing or distortion thereof. This difficulty I obviate by my invention, which consists essentially in forming the lining with a permanent loop integral therewith, to which the tag cord may be detachably secured, substantially in the manner and for the purpose herein set forth.

In the accompanying drawings,

Fig. l, is a perspective view of a crown lining formed with my tag loop, and exemplifying the use thereof;

Fig. 2, is a view of the inner side thereof; and

Fig. 3, is a sectional detail illustrating the incorporation of my tag loop with the crown lining.

Serial No. 599,013.

The crown lining, so called, shown in the drawings, consists of the vordinary crown section o, and the side section c, sewed thereto in the usual manner. My tag loop c2, may be permanently secured to the lining by any suitable means, as by incorporating the ends of the loop c2, in the seam s, between crown and side sections c, c', of the lining, as indicated particularly in Fig. 8,

of the drawings-it being understood that I do not limit and restrict myself in this respect. nor to the specific form of lining shown herein,-the lining, in a unitary sense, being made and shaped in accordance with requirements in ways well known in the prior state of the art.

The tag T, is provided with the usual ate tachment cord a, which, in applying to the lining, is passed through the loop c2, a suii cient distance to permit of the insertion of the tag T, through the bight of the cord thus formed; or the cord a, may be secured to the loop c2, of the lining by tying or otherwise, as may be found most convenient or expedient in practice: the gist of the invention being the provision of the loop c2, integral with the lining as a means for eecting the temporary attachment of the tag T, by means of its cord a, substantially as indicated in Fig. l, of the drawings.

What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is,

A hat lining comprising a crown section and a side section, and a tag loop permanently secured to and between the said sections at the junction thereof, in close proximity to the lining and normally substantially parallel therewith.
